Contemporary bluegrass musicians Norman and Nancy Blake perform old-time country songs in the style of rural acoustic music of the '30s on My Dear Old Southern Home. Norman has released several albums and performed on the O Brother Where, Art Thou? soundtrack. They perform ten songs in all, including "Last Train From Poor Valley," "Jimmy in the Swamp," "Old Mother Flanagan," and the title tune. Originally released on video in 1994, My Dear Old Southern Home was released on DVD in 2003 from Shanachie. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi
